An important factor in the rise in sales volumes during recent years has been the continuing high level of inflation. The study shows that throughout Utahgross sales nearly doubled between 1960 and 1971, and the increase between 1965 and 1971 amounted to 60. When these figures are adjusted for changes in consumer price levels, however, the increase between 1960 and 1971 amounts to 45 and the rise between 1965 and 1971 is 25. Foundation analysts point out that Salt Lake County accounts for more than one half the total sales volume in Utah. Salt Lake City proper is responsible for about 55 of the County total and 30 of the total sales for the state. During recent years, there has been a shift of business away from the central business districts to suburban shopping centers. In 1971, for example, business volume in Salt Lata City grew by only 9.7, compared with al5.0 growth rate for the entire state. During the period between 1965 and 1971, the business growth of rate was only about that for the state as a whole. Business volume in suburban Murray, on the other hand jumped 57 in 1971 and has tripled since 1965. The study by Utah Foundation shows the sales volumes in 27 Utah counties and 22 selected cities for 1965, 1970, and 1971 along with an index of business activity for these local units during the period 1965 throughl971. These data were derived from reported sales of goods and services subject to Utah's sales and use tax laws. This tax applies to most retail sales of tangibleper-son- al two-thir- brothers and one sister. Food Store Date Code Secret coding to clue a food store or company of the date that an unsold product should be removed from the shelf is coming to an "end. Open dating intended for the benefit of consumers is being instituted. However, where it is being usedmany shoppers do not understand what the numbers mean that are being put on products. This became apparent when rein an economic searchers research service talked to 1,700 shoppers at a grocery chain in Chicago which had begun using open dating. About half of the 1,700 shoppers were unaware of open dates on products. Only about one-fif- th of 400 shoppers interviewedmore thoroughly knew how to interpart the information. tt is simply this, that a date such as 0213, meaning February 13, marked on a carton of eggs inidcates that eggs bought by Feb- ds ruary 13 andusedwithinanormal period and with proper care at home should still be fresh. Many of the shoppers interviewed were aware of the dating, but they thought that it referred to the date the food was manufactured or when it was first displayed, or that it would be unsafe to eat after that date. . The open dating on food products replaces the old coded methods which could only be understood bygrocery personnel. According to HelenThackeray, Consumer Information Specialist, Utah State University Extension Services, one of the large grocery chains in Utah now puts an open date on all its private Others are labeled products. begining to use the open dating s, property, meals, and many services, such as utility charges, repairs, hotel and motel bills, laundry, cleanadmis-sion- ing, Mr.andMrs. great-grandpare- etc SUSC to Host Business Machines Show A Business Machines Show is being hosted by the Business Education Department of Southern Utah State College in Cedar City on April 26 and 27 in the Administration Building Lounge. On both days the exhibits will be open to the public from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. and from 2 to 5 p.m. This feature should be of particular benefit to the high school students who are participating in the annual Vocational Day on April 27. Those who attend the exhibit will have the opportunity to examine the most business machines and to watch demonstrations of their unique system. But the dating will only be helpful to consumers if they check it and if they understand it. "Used correctly, it should be a tool to help you become a more efficient shopper," Miss Thackery said.

FISH ses for 1972 became effective April 1 6 to replace the now invalid 1971 licenses, according to a Division of Wildlife Resources spokesman. Douglas Pay, Assistant Chief of Fiscal and Accounting for the Division, said the new wildlife licenses are available from some 500 license agents throughout the state. There are no changes in license fees this year. A resident license maybepur-chase- d by any person who has been dcmiciledinUtahfor 60 consecutive days immediately preceding purchase of the license. This person may not claim residency for hunting, fishing or trapping in any other state or country. Pay reminded sportsmen to sign the new license before using it. Use of an unsigned license is illegal in Utah.

This includes Insect pests such as the Grain Beetle, Cadelle, Indian Flour Moth and any of the dermestid beetles. If these pests are allowed to feed on stored food products, they will soon destroy them and move on to other nearby food products. Therefore, it is wise to discard small packages of food products that are Infested with any of these pests and store the remain- lng foods in a cool, dry place for the summer, he said. To keep food storage rooms free from insects, you can treat the shelves and other areas of the storage rooms with household formulations of pyrethrum, Saw-Tooth- ed malathlon or methoxychlor. But be sure to avoid direct contamination of food products with these chemicals. Good housekeeping to keep the place clean also will often minimize Insect infestations of food products, Roberts explained.

Fishermen spent $1,614,447 in Utah on licenses during 1971. Resident licenses totaled 272,658 and licenses 97,973, Lloyd said.

The Utah Congressman said that State Fish and Game departments certify the numbers of paid hunting and fishing license holders to the Fish and Wildlife Servicw, which uses them in Restoration Fund determining allocations.

Lloyd, Thursday expressed vigorous opposition to a bill approved by the House Education and Labor Committee raising the minimum wage from its present $1.60 per hour to $2.00. "This Is the type of legislation that helps beat small business into the ground. If passed in its present form it will create unemamong students and ployment young people and create vast new economic problems," the Utahn Rep. said. Lloyd said the bill is now being heard by the House Rules Committee, and is expected to be reported to the House for a vote soon. "It is this type of legislation which penalizes the productive worker in favor of the inefficient. The effect is to standardize wages, raise costs In an uneconomic fashion, and wreak havoc with the independent employers," Lloyd said. Under the committee bill, Lloyd explained, the minimum wage for most workers would go to $2.00. Workers only recently brought under coverage of the minimum wage laws would be raised to $1.80 minimum for one year, and then to $2.00. The bill provides an immediate increase to $1.50for agricultural workers, and a raise to $1.70 after one year, Lloyd said that the committee bill provides a differential rate for full time students who may work up to 20 hours per week at $1.60. However, the Secretary must of Labor certify that employment of students at the lower rate would not adversely affect employment, regular a provision which Lloyd said would seriously restrict the hiring of young people. He said the bill has "some very serious deficinecies," the main one of which is the lack of a more liberal youth differential provision to protect the jobs of young people. In addition, the bill lacks proper exemptions from minimum wage and overtime provisions for state and local government workers, transit employees, nursing home employees, sugar harvesters, seasonal workers, maids and custodial employees of hotels and motels, and laundry and The cleaning establishments. of these workers exemptions would be reduced and eventually eliminated under the committee bill, Lloyd said.

PROJECTS HELP DUCKS North American waterfowl will receive more nesting habitat this year through 94 waterfowl projects by Ducks Unlimited of Canada. Ducks Unlimited, the private nonprofit international waterfowl conservation organization, has proposed a record $3 million operating budget for their Canadian operations in 1972. Most of the money will come from donations by United States sportsmen and conservationists, and will be used to build and restore prime waterfowl breeding habitat at points from coast to coast across Canada. The announcement was made by Ducks Unlimited (Canada) President, Robert White, a Vancouver lawyer, during the corporation's annual mApHnc holH in Rwlna.
